Quality. Innovation. Relationship.

A good reputation is something that can only be achieved with time. Over the last 12 years, we have built a reputation for ourselves by helping our clients of all sizes to stay ahead of the race with our wide range of high quality bespoke eLearning solutions.

And not just that, our innovative solutions have also added value their learning business. The encouraging feedback we get and the trust-based partnerships that have been built are a testament to this.

The value we add is based on three key aspects: Quality, Innovation and Relationship.

Quality

Quality that we deliver is the result of conscious efforts driven by concrete learning design philosophy and our project management approach.

Learning Design Philosophy

The foundation of every project we design

Our philosophy is heavily influenced by three instructional design theoreticians - Benjamin Bloom, David Merrill, and Robert Mager. The instructional designers at Upside Learning are skilled craftsmen with their own unique ideas, beliefs, and values aligned to those philosophies. Every solution we provide relies on thorough understanding of the philosophies and its innovative application.

Robust Project Management

To ensure quality in every stage

Our project management approach is based on the key understanding that Bespoke eLearning development is an iterative process. It is based on ADDIE and includes components of the iterative development model. It helps us deliver quality output consistently, within the time and budgetary constraints.

All our efforts and the resultant quality we deliver are underlined by the awards that we win.

Innovation

Value Addition

Through Knowledge Sharing

Our clients believe in us because we don't stop at just creating effective learning solutions, we add value that goes beyond that. We have been recognised as thought leaders, and we frequently share our knowledge through blogs, eBooks, webinars, reports, presentations and whitepapers that focus on a range of best practices and the latest in learning technology.

Proactive Research

For Continuous Innovation

Furthermore, we try to turn these thoughts into action by designing and delivering a range of complex and diverse applications to meet the ever changing requirements of our clients (before they even need it). Here's a list of our proactive research.

Having experienced the need for proper testing facility in the multi-device world, we set up a testing lab of our own.

Early Adopter Of The Tin Can API

We had integrated Tin Can API into our proprietary courseware framework for bespoke eLearning and mobile learning back in 2012. In 2014, our innovative HTML-based Framework for Responsive eLearning Development (FRED) was recognised as an early adopter of the Tin Can API under 'Authoring Tools' category.

Relationship

What we do, as we do, wouldn't have any value, if not for our clients or partners. Our relationships are the testament to our work. Some of our clients have been with us for more than a decade and a large number for as long as 5 years. We also pride ourselves with our repeat business which has been as high as 85% in the past years.
